Join us as we journey through the literary explorations of author extraordinaire, Shannon Jump. An unflinching storyteller, Shannon gives us the lowdown on her thrilling trilogy, Crimes of Passion, and teases us with hints about her upcoming psychological thriller, Down She Goes. Her tales of independent authorship, from the elation of creative control to the laborious task of weaving her writing career into her already bustling life, offer listeners a raw and honest look into the world of indie publishing.

Shannon’s narrative is one of resilience, embracing a significant lifestyle shift after major surgery, and using her love of reading to fuel her writing. Not one to be confined by the boundaries of a single genre, Shannon shares her experience of genre-hopping, which adds an electrifying unpredictability to her works. She brings us along her journey, from the conception of an idea to the final product.

The conversation takes an exciting turn as we discuss the challenges faced by independent authors in the audiobook production process.

Shannon’s candid accounts of balancing her time while working from home and planning time to listen to other podcasts is sure to resonate with many listeners. Lastly, we talk about the profound impact that Shannon hopes her readers will gain from her upcoming book, Down She Goes. This episode is a must-listen for all book lovers and aspiring writers.
